Team Effort

Mr. and Mrs. Bluebird work as a team when feeding their babies. Both are avid hunters, going wherever the pickings can be found. In this case, Dad’s serving up cricket casserole while Mom’s whipping up some spider souffle. Babies aren’t particular; they eat just about anything.

I love watching this pair appear at the nestbox with a wide variety of fare. Dad tends to serve things on a larger scale while Mom offers daintier portions. I saw him with multiple caterpillars dangling from his bill; quite a feat to catch and carry but he does it expertly!

It’s very rare that both male and female land on a given spot together so I spliced two photos together in order to convey the idea of their concerted efforts on behalf of their little family.

    Back at the Blue Bird shots again, eh?? This one (or 2 ??) is outstanding Bonnie. Excellent job of splicing. I certainly could never have told the difference if you hadn’t pointed it out. I also found your comment regarding that to be interesting in that I got lucky enough to capture several shots of male and female very close together a couple years ago. I have hoped to get similar shots of male/female cardinal, but none that I’m very happy with so far.

    Great work Bonnie … good to see the birds starting to get active!!
